IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Precautions to be taken when using Microwave Ovens for Heating Foodstuffs
INSPECTION FOR DAMAGE:
A microwave oven should only be used if an inspection confirms all of the
following conditions:
1. The door fits squarely, securely and opens and closes smoothly.
2. The door hinges are in good condition.
3. The metal plates of a metal seal on the door are neither buckled nor
deformed.
4. The door seals are neither covered with food nor have large burn marks.
PRECAUTIONS:
Microwave radiation from microwave ovens can cause harmful effects if the
following precautions are not taken: 1. Never tamper with or deactivate the
interlocking
devices on the door.
2. Never poke an object, particularly a metal object, between the door and
the oven while the oven is operating.
3. Never place saucepans, unopened cans or other heavy metal objects in the
oven.
4. Do not let other metallic articles, e.g. fast food foil containers, touch
the side of the oven.
5. Clean the oven cavity, the door and the seals with water and a mild
detergent at regular intervals. Never use any form of abrasive cleaner that
may scratch or scour surfaces around the door.
6. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the
oven door glass, since they can scratch the surface, which may result in
shattering of the glass.
7. Always use the oven with the cookware recommended by the manufacturer.
8. Never operate the oven without a load (i.e., an absorbing material such as
food or water) in the oven cavity unless specifically allowed in the
manufacturer’s literature.
9. For horizontally hinged doors, never rest heavy objects such as food
containers on the door while it is open.
10. Do not place sealed containers in the microwave oven. Baby bottles fitted
with a screw cap or a teat are considered to be sealed containers.
11. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
12. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
13. It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any
service or repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives
protection against exposure to microwave energy.
14. The surfaces are liable to get hot during use.
15. The appliance must not be installed behind a decorative door in order to
avoid overheating.
Practical Hints:
1. For initial use of Grill and Oven, if you see white smoke arise, it is not
a malfunction.
2. Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on the cabinet and the oven
door will get hot during Grill and Oven. Use with care when opening or closing
door and when inserting or removing food and accessory.
Caution! Hot surfaces
3. The oven has heating elements situated in the top and in the base of the
oven. After using the Grill and Oven functions, the ceiling will be very hot.
4. During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid
touching heating elements inside the oven.
5. The accessible parts may become hot when Grill and Oven is in use.
Children should be kept away.
6. Before using Grill and Oven functions for the first time, operate the oven
without food and accessory on Oven 200 °C for 10 minutes. This will allow the
oil that is used for rust protection to be burned off. This is the only time
that the oven is operated completely empty (except when preheating).

Installation and General Instructions
General Use
1. In order to maintain high quality, do not operate the oven when empty. The
microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout the oven if no food or
water is present to absorb energy. This can lead to damage to the microwave
oven including arcing within the oven cavity.
2. If smoke is observed, tap Stop/Cancel and leave door closed in order to
stifle any flames. Disconnect the power cord, and/or shut off power at the
fuse or circuit breaker panel.
3. The microwave oven is intended for heating food and beverages. Drying of
food or clothing and heating of warming pads, slippers, sponges, damp cloth
and similar may lead to risk of injury, ignition or fire.
4. Do not dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in oven. They may catch
on fire.
5. Do not use recycled paper products, unless the paper product is labelled
as safe for microwave oven use. Recycled paper products may contain impurities
which may cause sparks and/or fires when used.
6. Do not use newspapers or paper bags for cooking. 7. Do not hit or strike
control panel. Damage to
controls may occur. 8. POT HOLDERS may be needed as heat from food
is transferred to the cooking container and from the container to the oven.
The oven can be very hot after removing the cooking container from the oven.
9. Do not store flammable materials next to, on top of, or in the oven. It
could be a fire hazard.
10. Do not cook food directly on the base of oven unless indicated in
recipes. (Food should be placed in a suitable cooking utensil.)
11. DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or other non-food products. DO NOT
clean this oven with any product that is labelled as containing corrosive
chemicals. The heating of corrosive chemicals in this oven may cause microwave
radiation leaks.

Installation and General Instructions (continued)
Placement of the Oven
This oven is intended for Counter-top use only. It is not intended for built-
in use or use inside a cupboard. The appliance shall not be placed in a
cabinet.
1. The oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface, more than 85 cm above
the floor. For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow, i.e.
5 cm at one side, the other being open; 25 cm clear over the top; 10 cm at the
rear. Do not remove feet.
5 cm
25 cm
counter top
10 cm
Open
(a) Do not block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may
overheat. If the oven overheats, a thermal safety device will turn the oven
off. The oven will remain inoperable until it has cooled.
(b) Do not place oven near a hot or damp surface such as a gas stove, electric
range or sink etc.
(c) Do not operate oven when room humidity is too high.
2. This oven was manufactured for household use only.
Food
1. Do not use your oven for home canning or the heating of any closed jar.
Pressure will build up and the jar may explode. In addition, the microwave
oven cannot maintain the food at the correct canning temperature. Improperly
canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.
2. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.
3. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in
microwave ovens since they may explode, even after microwave heating has
ended.
4. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, chicken wings, whole squash and sausages are
examples of foods with nonporous skins. This type of food must be pierced
before cooking, to prevent bursting.
5. When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces and beverages in your microwave
oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence
of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over the hot liquid. To
prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:
(a) Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
(b) Do not overheat.
(c) Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway
through cooking time.
(d) After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stirring again
before carefully removing the container.
(e) Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling,
therefore care must be taken when handling the container.
(f) As a general rule, always cover wet foods,e.g. soups, casseroles and
plated meals.
6. DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT THERMOMETER IN THE MICROWAVE OVEN. To check
the degree of cooking of roasts and poultry use a MICROWAVE THERMOMETER.
Alternatively, a conventional meat thermometer may be used after the food is
removed from the oven. If undercooked, return meat or poultry to the oven and
cook for a few more minutes at the recommended power level. It is important to
ensure that meat and poultry are thoroughly cooked.

Installation and General Instructions (continued)
7. COOKING TIMES given in the Cooking Guide section are APPROXIMATE. Factors
that may affect cooking time are preferred degree of moisture content,
starting temperature, altitude, volume, size, shape of food and utensils used.
As you become familiar with the oven, you will be able to adjust for these
factors.
8. It is better to UNDERCOOK RATHER THAN OVERCOOK foods. If food is
undercooked, it can always be returned to the oven for further cooking. If
food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Always start with minimum cooking
times recommended.
9. Extreme care should be taken when cooking popcorn in a microwave oven.
Cook for minimum time as recommended by manufacturer. Use the directions
suitable for the wattage of your microwave oven. NEVER leave oven unattended
when popping popcorn.
10. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven
due to the possibility of ignition.
11. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or
shaken and the temperature is to be checked before consumption, in order to
avoid burns.
Microwaves and How They Work
MICROWAVE COOKING
Microwaves are a form of high frequency electromagnetic waves (app. 12 cm wave
length) similar to those used by a radio. Electricity is converted into
microwave energy by the magnetron tube. The microwaves travel from the
magnetron tube to the oven cavity where they are reflected,transmitted or
absorbed.
Reflection
Microwaves are reflected by metal just as a ball is bounced off a wall. A
combination of stationary (interior walls) and rotating metal (turntable or
stirrer fan) helps assure that the microwaves are well distributed within the
oven cavity to produce even cooking.
Transmission
Microwaves pass through some materials such as paper, glass and plastic much
like sunlight shining through a window. Because these substances do not absorb
or reflect the microwave energy, they are ideal materials for microwave oven
cooking containers.
Absorption
Microwaves are absorbed by food. They penetrate to a depth of about 2 to 4 cm.
Microwave energy excites the molecules in the food (especially water, fat and
sugar molecules), and causes them to vibrate very quickly. The vibration
causes friction and heat is produced. In large foods, the heat which is
produced by friction is conducted to the center to finish cooking the food.
MICROWAVE COOKING UTENSILS
Microwave cooking opens new possibilities in convenience and flexibility for
cooking containers. Although new microwave accessory are constantly being
introduced, many utensils readily available in most kitchens may also be used
for microwave cooking and heating.
Glass, Ceramic and China
Heat-Resistant glass cookware is invaluable in microwave cooking. Many of
these items are readily available in most homes: glass measures, custard cups,
mixing bowls, loaf dishes, covered casseroles, oblong baking dishes, pie plate
and round or square cake dishes.
Dinnerware can be used for microwave heating. Many brands of dinnerware are
microwave safe. Check the care information for reference to microwave use for
dinnerware and serving pieces.
If dinnerware is marked ovenproof, it is safe to use it frequently in the
microwave oven. However, to be sure, check by conducting microwave dish test.
Several types of glassware and dinnerware are not recommended for use in the
microwave oven.
Remember these basic rules when using dinnerware and glassware. Do not use
dishes with metallic trim or containers with metal parts. Arcing may occur
and/or the dish may break. Do not use ceramic mugs or cups with glued-on
handles. The handles may fall off with continued heating. Do not use delicate
glassware. Although the glassware may be transparent to microwave energy, the
heat from the food may cause the glassware to crack.
HOW TO TEST A CONTAINER FOR SAFE MICROWAVE OVEN USE:
Fill a 300 ml (½ pt.) glass measure with water and place it in the microwave
oven along with the container to be tested; heat one minute at 1000 W, if the
container is microwave oven safe, it should remain comfortable cool and the
water should be hot. If the container is warm, it has absorbed some microwave
energy and should not be used. This test cannot be used for plastic containers
which should be dishwasher safe.
– Eng-8 –
‘$9)1@&OH@JOEE
English
Microwaves and How They Work (continued)
Jars and Bottles can be used to warm food to serving temperature, if the lid
is removed first. Cooking should not be done in these containers since most
are not heat-resistant and during extended heating times, heat from food would
cause cracking or breaking.
Browning Dishes are used to sear chops, meat patties, steaks etc. A special
coating on the bottom of the dish absorbs the microwave energy and becomes
very hot. When foods are added to the dish, the result is a seared effect.
Preheat dish according to manufacturer’s directions. Add food to be seared and
heat according to recipe or personal preference. Use pot holders to remove
dish from microwave oven. Do not use browning dish on Auto Menu. Check
information included with browning dish for detailed instructions and heating
chart. Do not use browning dish for roasting or whole poultry.
Paper, Napkins, Paper Towels, Plates and Cups
All are handy utensils for microwave cooking. Use them for foods with short
cooking times and low fat content. Avoid wax coated paper goods, since the wax
may melt onto the food when the food reaches high temperatures. Waxed paper is
suitable to use to prevent splatter. Disposable polyester coated paperboard
pans are sturdy, come in a variety of sizes and are ideal for microwaving.
CAUTION: DO NOT use recycled paper products, such as brown paper bags, since
they contain impurities which may cause arcing (blue sparks) and damage the
oven.
Straw, Wicker and Wood
Straw and wicker baskets may be used in the microwave oven for short periods
of time to warm rolls or bread. Large wooden utensils such as bowls or cutting
boards should NOT be used for prolonged heating as the microwave energy may
cause the wood to become dry and brittle.
Plastic Dishes, Cups and Some Freezer Containers may be used in the microwave
oven. Choose plastic containers carefully since some can become soft,
distorted or pitted from the heat of the food. Check manufacturer’s
recommendations concerning microwave safety. Plastic dishes should not be used
for cooking over an extended period of time or with foods having high fat and
sugar content.
Cooking Bags designed to withstand boiling, freezing, or conventional heating
are microwave safe. Prepare bags according to manufacturer’s directions. Close
cooking bag with nylon tie provided, otherwise, use a piece of cotton string,
or a strip cut from the open end of the bag. Make six 1 cm (½ in.) slits in
the top of bag to allow steam to escape. DO NOT use wire twist-tie to close
bag. They can act as an antenna and cause arcing (blue sparks). Wire twist-
ties could ignite and damage the oven. DO NOT cook in plastic
food storage bags. They are not heat-resistant and may melt. Do not use
roaster bags on Auto Sensor programmes.
Plastic Wrap (cling film) can be used to cover dishes in most recipes. Over an
extended heating time, some disfiguration of the wrap may occur. When using
cling film “covers,” as well as any glass lid, be careful to remove it away
from you to avoid steam burns. After heating, loosen plastic but let dish
stand covered. For Auto Sensor Cooking do not turn back corners of cling film
covers.
Metal containers or utensils, and those with metallic trim, should NOT be used
in the microwave oven. Since microwave energy is reflected by metal, foods in
metal containers will not cook evenly. There is also the possibility of
“arcing”. This is a static discharge or blue spark between gaps in the metal
or between the metal and the interior of the oven. Arcing may cause damage to
the oven walls. If arcing occurs, turn the unit off and transfer food to a
non- metallic container. Although metal utensils must be avoided in microwave
cooking, some metal can be helpful when used correctly.
Aluminium Foil can be used safely if certain guidelines are followed. Because
it reflects microwave energy, foil can be used to an advantage in some
recipes. It can be used to prevent overcooking. Small pieces of foil are used
to cover areas such as chicken wings, tips of roasts, or other thin parts that
cook before the rest of the recipe is finished. Foil is used in these cases to
slow or stop the cooking process and prevent overcooking. Pieces of foil can
be held in position with pieces of wooden cocktail sticks.
Foil Lined Containers, either cardboard or plastic, should NOT be used in the
microwave oven. Foil lined milk cartons, frozen orange juice concentrate
containers, or baking containers, included in some cake mixes are examples of
things to be avoided.
Metal Skewers can be used if there is a large amount of food in proportion to
the amount of metal. Take care in the placement of the skewers to avoid arcing
between the skewers or between the skewers and the sides of the oven. Wooden
skewers are the best and can be easily purchased at your local market, grocery
store, or in the housewares section of many department stores.
Thermometers are available for use in microwave ovens. DO NOT USE CONVENTIONAL
MERCURY TYPE CANDY OR MEAT THERMOMETERS in food while heating in the microwave
oven.
Metal Twist-Ties either paper or plastic coated, should NOT be used in the
microwave oven.

Defrosting Tips and Techniques
Preparation for Freezing
The quality of the cooked foods comes from the foods before freezing, freezing
ways and defrosting tips and times. So it is important to purchase fresh and
high quality foods. And freeze them immediately. Thick plastic foil, package,
freezing wrap and the meat which has been sealed before selling are all able
to be reserved in the refrigerator for some times.
Note:
1. When freezing meats, poultry and fish or seafood, the foods should be
arranged evenly and wrap as 2.5 cm 5 cm square or a round shape.
2. Please clean the whole chicken before freezing. (The bowels can be frozen
individually.) Clean the whole chicken and make it dry. Binding the leg and
thigh.
3. Remove all air and seal securely. Label package with type and cut of meat,
date and weight.
4. Please remove the aluminum foil if the package is made of aluminum to
prevent arcing.
5. The foods in the refrigerator should be kept under -18 °C. (At least 24
hours in freezer before defrosting.)
Turbo Defrost
The Turbo defrost function is operated based on the weight of foods. Most cut
foods such as chicken, meat and fish can be defrosted by using this function
easily. Set weight based on the real weight of foods, and the microwave oven
will set the power and time automatically. The display window will display the
time of defrost after setting. The foods listed in the below table are the
most suitable for using defrost function. The minimize weight is 100 g and the
maximum is 2000 g for getting the best result.
Foods Meat loaf, chicken, rib Beef, lamb, whole chicken Whole fish, shellfish, prawn and fish fillet
The maximum weight for the foods 2000 g 2000 g 1000 g
Tips for Turbo defrost
Meat, which is with bones. For example, if the meat with bones has the same
weight as the pure meat, the meat in the former one is lighter than the latter
one. So, subtract 500 g for 2000 g meat with bones is better for defrosting
and 200 g – 300 g for meat with bones which is less than 2000 g.
Two buzz beeps
Turn over the meat, chicken, fish and shellfish. Separate the stewed meat,
chicken pieces and meat loaf. Apart the meat loaf from the hamburger. Shield
the edge of chicken wings, roast, fat or bones.
Key to defrosting
For evenly defrosting, turn over the foods or move the position of the foods in the containers during the progress of defrosting.

Sensor Reheat Setting
This feature allows you to reheat foods without entering the weight. The
built-in sensor measures the humidity of the food and calculates the
recommended microwave power level together with a suggested cooking time.
1. Press once.
2. Press once. After the heat and humidity is detected by the SENSOR, the oven will beep twice, the remaining time appears in the Display Window and begins to count down.
3. Adjust the taste by tapping the within 14 seconds.
(Optional)
How it Works
Once the Sensor Reheat Program has been selected and Start/Set pad tapped the
food is heated up. As food begins to get hot, steam is emitted. When the food
reaches a certain temperature and begins to cook, an even greater amount of
steam is released. The increase in steam emission is detected by a humidity
sensor in the oven. This acts as a signal for the oven to calculate how much
longer the food needs to reheat. The remaining cooking time will appear in the
display window after two beeps. Whilst the sensor reheat program is still in
the display window the oven door should not be opened. Wait until the cooking
time appears in the window, and then open the door if required, to stir or
turn the food.
Adjust to Taste
Preferences for degree of cooking vary for each individual. After having used Sensor Reheat Program a few
times, you may decide you would prefer your food cooked to a different degree of cooking. After tapping Start/
Set pad, ” ” appears in the display, tap
for more time or for less time. This operation should be
completed within 14 seconds. If you are satisfied with the result of the Auto Sensor Reheat Programs, you do not
have to use this control.
Notes:
1. This feature is not suitable for foods that cannot be stirred eg. lasagne
/ macaroni cheese. 2. The oven automatically calculates the reheating time or
the remaining reheating time. 3. The door should not be opened before the time
appears in the display window. 4. To prevent any mistakes during Sensor Reheat
Program ensure that base of oven and the container are dry. 5. The room
temperature should not be more than 35 °C and not less than 0 °C. 6. If the
oven has previously been used and it is too hot to be used on Sensor Reheat
Program, HOt’ will appear in the display window. After theHOt’ disappears, the Sensor Reheat
Program may be used. If in a hurry, cook food manually by selecting the
correct cooking mode and cooking time yourself. 7. Most foods benefit from a
STANDING time, after cooking with an Sensor Reheat Program, to allow heat to
continue conducting to the centre. 8. To allow for some variations that occur
in food, check that food is thoroughly cooked and piping hot before serving.

Before Requesting Service
ALL THESE THINGS ARE NORMAL:
The oven causes interference with my TV.
Steam accumulates on the oven door and warm air comes from the oven vents.
I accidentally operate my microwave oven without any food in it.
Some radio, TV, Wi-Fi, cordless telephone, baby monitor, Bluetooth or other
wireless equipment interference might occur when you cook with the microwave
oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by small
appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a
problem with your oven.
During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of the
steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates in
the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as
inside and/or on the oven door. This is normal and safe. Steam will disappear
after the oven is cooled down.
Operating the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven. However,
we do not recommend this to be done.
The oven has an odour and generates smoke when using Oven and Grill function.
Some smoke will be given off from the cavity when using Oven or Grill for the
first time.
It is essential that your oven is wiped out regularly particularly after
cooking by Oven or Grill. Any fat and grease that builds up on the roof and
walls of the oven will begin to smoke if not cleaned.
It caused by the excessive oil in the cavity and oil used for rust protection
volatilizing.
The sound of “Bar… Bar…” may be emitted at the back of the oven cavity during
and after the use of different kinds of Oven function.
Steam leaks out from all four sides of the oven door.
The fan motor continues operating after cooking is over.
This is a cause of thermal expansion and contraction of the metal material
used in the product. It is normal.
When a function related to steam is used, a lot of steam are generated in the
oven cavity during operation of the product. Some steam may leak from all four
sides of the oven door. It is normal.
After using the oven, the fan motor will operate for several minutes to cool
the oven and electric components. It is normal.

Care of your Microwave Oven
Turn the oven off and remove the power plug from the wall socket before cleaning.
The outside oven surfaces should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
Always clean the Flat Table after cooling down with a mild detergent and wipe to dry.
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty. The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not recommended.
Clean the upper heater after it is completely cold. Wipe with a soft and damp cloth carefully.
Do not allow the Control Panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use detergents, abrasives or spray-on cleaners on the Control Panel. After cleaning tap Stop/Cancel pad to clear display window.
After use, wash the accessories in hot soapy water and rinse in hot water. Do
not use any abrasive cleaning substances or scouring pads as this will damage
the surface of the accessories.
Enamel Tray
If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is operated under high humidity conditions and in no way indicates malfunction of the unit.
Notes: 1. When using the Grill or Oven mode, some foods may inevitably
splatter grease on to the oven walls. If the
oven is not cleaned, occasionally it may start to “smoke” during use. These
marks will be more difficult to clean later.
2. After Grill or Oven cooking the ceiling and walls of the oven should be
cleaned with a soft cloth squeezed in soapy water. Particular care should be
taken to keep the window area clean particularly after cooking by Grill, Oven.
Stubborn spots inside the oven can be removed by using a small amount of
microwave oven cleaner sprayed onto a soft damp cloth. Wipe onto problem
spots, leave for recommended time and then wipe off. This method can not be
used to clean the oven door.
DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE THE OVEN.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven
door glass, since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering
of the glass. A steam cleaner is not to be used.
3. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to
deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
4. When it becomes necessary to replace the oven light, please consult the
service center specified by Panasonic.
